Lam Nguyen is an associate professor at the University Paris-Est Créteil (UPEC), France, the leader of the Spectroscopie & Atmosphère (SpecAt) group at the Laboratoire Interuniversitaire des Systèmes Atmosphériques (LISA), and a junior member of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF). She has been working in molecular jet Fourier transform microwave (FTMW) spectroscopy since 2009 (PhD in 2012 at the RWTH Aachen University, Germany). Her research spans two main axes: (i) experimental spectrometer developments and (ii) spectral analysis and modeling of molecules with Large Amplitude Motions (LAMs). During the COVID-19 period (2019-2022), she built the innovative “chirped Pulsed And Resonator In one Spectrometer" (PARIS) that combines the sensitivity of a resonator setup with the survey speed of a chirped pulse spectrometer. PARIS has set a milestone in molecular jet FTMW instrumental development by reaching the broadband resolution previously only attainable with the resonator setup and achieving the record ppb sensitivity with the resonator. Her expertise in spectral modeling and analysis focuses on molecules undergoing LAM and nuclear quadrupole coupling effects. She combined experimental data with quantum chemical calculations to characterize molecular structures and internal dynamics. Her work has applications in chemistry, astrophysics, atmospheric sciences, and biology, particularly in understanding odorant molecules and natural substances.
